Year 6: 2023-2024 (Summer Term)
What a way to raise money for a fantastic cause, @daftasabrushcc! Last week, Year 6 completed a sponsored colour run to raise as much money as possible for a cause close to our hearts! We had great fun as we failed to dodge the coloured paint. @FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla pic.twitter.com/ws3oRpywA6

Year 6 have loved their final @FallaParkSchool Sports Day! It was filled with our favourite events, including the obstacle course - at least it wasn’t as muddy as the one on residential! Thank you to @GatesheadSSP for setting up!@Miss_Carr_Falla pic.twitter.com/p7s1SGgLF9

Year 6 enjoyed their visit to Thistleyhaugh Farm with Debbie, Farmer Angus and Farmer Duncan with @CountryTrust. We explored lots from planting our pants to seeing a sheep being sheared. @FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla pic.twitter.com/RfRL3YJFbN

What a great time we’ve had at Lockerbie Manor. We’ve practised our canoeing skills and learnt the importance of making a raft that floats. We only got slightly drenched in the process!@FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla pic.twitter.com/NmCicyFm8e
As part of our Money Maths challenges we have been designing our dream theme park. Today, @MissDoyle_Falla posed a question to us about which ride was the most popular. Don’t worry, we knew how to share our results with her. A pie chart!@FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla pic.twitter.com/adhkLOnzc8

Year 6 have started their National Numeracy day with some coding on the Micro:Bits. We created a pedometer to track our steps before deciding to share our results using a line graph.@FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla @MissDoyle_Falla @Miss__McVeigh pic.twitter.com/pWKMpSNCKp

Some of our children from Year 5 and 6 had a fantastic day with @GatesheadSSP on their Showing Potential Day. We loved each of our workshops and took away the key message of believing in ourselves no matter the challenge!@FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla pic.twitter.com/Yy9JGiDuLR

In PE, Year 6 were looking at our teamwork value as part of their first orienteering lesson. We created faces using equipment and had to direct our partner around the cones course.@FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla pic.twitter.com/7t9J2j7AkT

In English, we’ve worked hard with Miss James to plan our setting descriptions. We hope our readers become captivated by the magic of the Nowhere Emporium! We can’t wait to begin writing these in the next week! @FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla @MrsBarter_Falla pic.twitter.com/N7asPcaXP4

Before Easter, the children in Year 6 designed their own version of the Nowhere Emporium. They were as mystical and magical as Ross Mackenzie’s writing!@FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla @FPMrsMcMillan pic.twitter.com/ZwqbjUfBil
